So A long while back I had an email from Blake and he gave me a clue as to what we might expect for Havoc or Wildside... He said "Havoc and Wildside are not girls and are going to probably be whole other characters if you look at my instagram you may get a good idea of who one of them will be!" Well, I had a look at his Instagram and perhaps this is what he was referring to...? http://instagram.com/p/BPT2cbbg-eQ  Thoughts? |

I'm sure the final figures won't look exactly like that one, but it's most likely the source of inspiration they'll draw from. I don't know about the crazy hair, but the gasmask look would work well.

It would be brilliant if Lanard were to try and position themselves with a figure that could go with the Acid Rain universe. They already are cashing in on Jurassic World (along with Chap Mei).
I like the thought of them coming into their own, but also making their line versatile enough to go with several different lines. The only other figure from the timeline on his Instagram would be Whispering Willie. And even that one was the thought of bringing him back into the lineup. I think you hit the nail on the head with the Acid Rain figure being the inspiration for one of the new figs.

Now that may be a possibility. If that was inspiration for the figures and they were a little too similar to their source, that could explain the "legal" issue that was referenced in another thread that caused the art department to change up their design. |

A gasmask figure would be fine but make it too close too close to Oritoys acid rains jacks figure and lanard could be in a lawsuit. In fact the story line of a post apocolypse earth they have would lend itself to a character with a gasmask. |

It's interesting to look at a figure like this. I think that the mask should be removed.

I tried to investigate a little further. If it isn't the ARW figure then the only other option is the Joker pic...it feels like Havoc and Wildside have been shelved for now. Lanard may wait to see how the initial 6 newer figs will do and may position Havoc and Wildside for next year.

My best guess is that they will re-use both the Impact and smoke body to make them . with new heads .since both Titan and el-hefe re-use the same body as does Shrapnel and trickshot.

Does anyone have that screenshot from the Lanard design studio tour video that Blake uplaoded. There was character concept art behind him at one point and I just need to see the one image that looked like new Super Soldier concepts.

I must have missed the super soldier artwork. I know the artwork for El Jefe, Impact, Smoke and Shrapnel were shown though. I'm interested in seeing the Super Soldier stuff now too.

It make sense they would reuse Smoke and Shrapnel if they don't reuse Smoke and Shrapnel, what are the chances that Havoc and Wild side are the names of the leaders in the troop builder three packs? It will there be the troop builder battle packs and then another pack with Havoc and Wildside.. it two more battle packs with one having Havoc and two other figures.. and Wild side with two other figures? And if there are four Battle packs.. what would be the four other figures in them? |
